GETSI Module: Locating Subsurface Features using Gravity and Magnetics Open Intermediate Open Resource This module introduces students to the fundamentals of exploring the subsurface with gravity and magnetism. Unit 1 provides a scaffolded introduction to locating buried objects with gravity. Unit 2 explores the major concepts involved in using magnetism to explore the environment. Unit 3 offers practical applications of the two methods using authentic data sets.
